Techniques for managing data involve receiving a write request to write a data block into a first stripe in a disk array, the write request comprising a first storage address for storing the data block. The techniques further involve determining, based on the first storage address, a first group of disks related to a data portion of the first stripe and a second group of disks related to a parity portion of the first stripe. The techniques further involve, in response to a first disk in the first group of disks being unavailable, storing a data sub-block related to the first disk into a first parity portion of the parity portion such that the data block is stored in the first stripe, the first parity portion being located at a second disk in the second group of disks. The techniques further involve returning a response to the write request, the response comprising a first indication indicating a status of the disks in the disk array.
